Infrared Analysis of Peptides and Proteins

Principles and Applications

Edited by Bal Ram Singh

Infrared radiation (IR) analysis is proving a powerful tool for understanding the structure and function of peptides and proteins, but the method remains relatively little known. This book examines these applications in detail, providing a valuable source for both basic methods and new refinements.

Reviews and Awards

"Nine papers from an August 1998 symposium in Boston address some of the issues around using infrared spectroscopy to investigate the relationship between the structure and function of peptides and proteins. The technique has been very helpful in the task but remains little used even by specialists. Among the issues are instrumentation, sampling methods, theoretical and experimental band assignments, and derivations. The material includes basic introductions and extensive examples of applications, so could be used as a reference in an advanced graduate biological spectroscopy course."--SciTech Book News
